So if you use dma_unmap_single(), I think you can remove the call to dma_sync_single_for_cpu(). > dma_sync_single_for_cpu(dma_chan->device->dev, dest_dma, > PAGE_SIZE, DMA_FROM_DEVICE); > + dma_unmap_page(dma_chan->device->dev, dest_dma, PAGE_SIZE, > + DMA_FROM_DEVICE); Ditto. Also, the mv_xor_memcpy_self_test() function not only dma_map_single() the destination buffer, but also the source buffer. So presumably, the source buffer should also be dma_unmap_single()'d. And for the mv_xor_xor_self_test() function, multiple source buffers are dma_map_page()'d, so they should all be dma_unmap_page()'d I guess, not only the destination buffer. Does that make sense?
